hi there i am also purchasing a2 bed flat in tiba gardens would appreciate when you go over to post some photo on the progress and also what the erea is like as ive never been to eygpt
Hi Jason
Hi again , glad its going so well , in my last post i put palace , im in the tiba gardens project , apart from the air con, surley water heating , and kitchen base units are in with the contract price or am i wrong as it does doent it state there be a stainless steel sink in kitchen ? i do wonder on that one . Also did you buy direct from builders or did you use a agent in the uk?im in the process of finding a egyptian lawyer are you using one ?
Hi Jason, the kitchen sink is included! but not units, plumbing is! but not the heater. We used GDI estate agents in Hurghada - Stefan is dealing with it for us, really helpful guy, great knowledge and excellent english. He also phones us back in the UK to make sure he has complete understanding which impressed me. We are using a solicitor called Tarek Fathalla who has also been very informative and regular emails. Apparently he is not the cheapest, but it depends on the package you buy. Regarding the notary in the UK you have to google for one in your area, as not all solicitors are notaries. We live in swindon and we chose one in Bath. On the introductory thread, there are other solicitors that are recommended, but everyone has their own opinion and findings on how good they are. I can only say that all is well so far.
Oh thanks for that , yes i also found tarek about 2 hours ago, will now search for a notary as i live in london that should be ok , its great to talk to you as we both going though the same , hunghada is lovley i spent 2 weeks there back in feb if its your first time they love the english pound .
I will stock up! We are staying at a hotel called steigenberger al dau club, the poor sister of the beach hotel apparently. We didn't have much choice as we were going to rhodes and then decided to swap destinations last month, and thompsons only go to two hotels in hurghada. Never mind, I am sure it will suffice!
Hey thanks for the update . if im going over i will stay at the acm azur with being over the road from development , travel republic is good way to find your own hotel have the all inculsive life , while checking up on devolopments at site. also media travel i brought two holidays from them to eygpt and you can alway get it cheaper after a bit of bartering .
HI im Mark and im also buying a one bed appartment on the tiba gardens resort,how is everything going with yours?regards Mark
Hi Mark - nice to hear that you are also buying on Tiba Gardens. If you have followed the thread you will know that Lady J and I will be in Hurghada in June, so we aim to check out the progress and upload some photos.
Nice to have your comments, we haven't been to Hurghada, so it is really nice to hear that the build quality of the Tiba Projects is good, and makes me and Lady J pleased that we picked them. We didn't pay a finders fee with GDI either, and they are registered in UAE with offices in London etc. Your solicitor's fee appears to be very good value and a lot less than what we paid, but to be fair to our lawyer he was offering two packages and we picked the more expensive offer in the hope that it was safer should anything go wrong - let's hope we all can look forward to a welcome drink in our holiday homes next year!! It was a real hard choice between Tiba G and Isida Joya as we liked the location of Isida, but as we hope to spend a lot of time in the flat in the future rather than rent to buy, we preferred the Tiba G layout so bought there.
WOW! super cool - fantastic deal Jason!! ........ I would be very interested to know the price of the extras so we can consider if we can afford them too. I don't know if that classes as advertising so maybe you could send me a private mail?
Good morning Jay!
i will have to private message you , my last post was change by admin , so i best delete it as it makes no sence now .
